Ardhansh's POV

I arrived in Nashik and glanced at my watch; it was 6 PM. I was afraid about leaving my sister and sons alone, but it was only a matter of a few hours, right?

I couldn’t bring myself to say no to her, especially when she asked for something so small. I know I've given her nothing but pain, and this is barely 0.1% of what’s needed to lessen the guilt that drowns me every day.

I was aware of the risks, given everything happening in my life, but I ensured their safety. Still, my heart thudded involuntarily. That’s why I planned to return to Mumbai tonight.

As I drove towards Trimbakeshwar, the sight of the old roads brought back a flood of surreal memories.

How ironic. That day, I wasn’t even interested in looking out of the car window, and today, I don’t want to miss a single moment of capturing this beautiful place.
